Magnesium, a mineral that plays an essential role in your health, is found naturally in a variety of foods. However, determining which type of a magnesium supplement may be difficult. Magnesium Malate is a compound of magnesium and malic acid–an acid found in many fruits. One study in rats found that magnesium malate provided the best absorption when compared with other supplements. Uses for magnesium supplements range from preventing and treating migraines to promoting regular bowel movements, by drawing water into the intestines. Magnesium has also been used to treat depression since the 1920’s, and may be effective in elevating your mood, rather than an antidepressant. Other studies indicate that it may reduce chronic pain. However, potential side effects can occur, especially when taken in high doses.<\/p>\n
